Why? Doesn’t matter because hey, look at the cool effects, and nod knowingly at the inside references!ĭetective Pikachu’s visual effects certainly do dazzle. Young Tim could have moved in with his father in RymeCity after his mother died but didn’t. We learn that as a child he dreamed of being a Pokemon trainer but gave it up. His humdrum existence as an insurance adjuster is turned upside down when he must travel to Ryme City – where humans and Pokemon co-exist in harmony – following the death of his police detective father, which may have been staged. The issues start with Tim Goodman, the weak lead character with a paper-thin backstory who accepts his ludicrous predicament too easily. I hate to rain on Pikachu’s parade, but an obvious plot and lazy fan service aren’t Detective Pikachu’s only problems.
On screen, however, predictability can turn a sunny frolic into a dreary slog. Behind the scenes, predictability is vital. Rain delays that force big exterior shoots to move indoors or be completely rescheduled can cost millions.įor a tentpole film like Pokémon Detective Pikachu (or Dark Shadows_, a film we also wrote to you about), your skills can save a production valuable time and money. Sure, the layperson can check a weather app to plan a backyard BBQ, but Hollywood has a lot more on the line than soggy buns. Your job is to predict what, for most of us, is unpredictable.
